Will the crash of the London-bound B787 Dreamliner in Ahmedabad affect Air India’s dreams of flying high?
THE FATAL CRASH of Air India flight AI 171 in Ahmedabad has brought Boeing under renewed global scrutiny. After a week of that incident, another Air India Hong Kong-Delhi flight, a 787 Dreamliner, was forced to return to the airport, shortly after take-off, due to a technical issue. However, these events are unlikely to impact the delivery of 185 outstanding aircraft, a part of the fleet modernisation plan of the Tata Group airline.
Air India has an order book of 529 aircraft, which includes 20 B787 Dreamliners. The company is already facing a delay in aircraft deliveries due to global supply chain issues, impacting its expansion plans.
The Tata-owned airline has two variants of Dreamliner in its fleet—B787-8 and B787-9. The majority of Air India’s Dreamliners is the 7878 variant (26), while it also operates seven 787-9 acquired in November from its merger with Vistara. Their average age is 10.9 and 4.7 years respectively.
